Firefox Community Forum

I've always loved Firefox because it's open source, privacy-focused, and developed by a nonprofit rather than a company whose business depends on advertising. Despite all of that, it seems like relatively few people use it compared to other browsers.

Why do you think Firefox hasn't become more popular? Is it mainly because of marketing, website compatibility, user habits, or something else? I'd be interested to hear the community's thoughts.

Hello everyone, I'm a newbie to Linux, just installed Mint on a Lenovo desktop Thinkcentre M81. I can't figure out how to connect to the internet. I have Surfshark VPN, Race modem and router. I have read various documentation and watched videos. My problem is I don't know what to enter in the Mint network setting, connections (verbiage, is so different) or doesn't connect on it's own. Also, the only way I can connect is using my phone as a dongle. And I can't connect without it. Also connected thru Foxfire.

Please help, I'm 79 yrs old and it takes awhile to understand what I'm doing.

Thank you and lovers to you all for reading this!

I'm running Firefox 152. When I try to interact with chat bot at https://www.sutterhealth.org/contact-us it says to "Update Permissions". Their tech support said to clear cookies and cache or use Google Chrome. I cleared cookies and data. Their Chat bot still says to "Update Permissions".

I need to help to find out what is causing this block. Thank you!

I have been on this OS for many months, uploading from the photos library to a website community I'm a long-standing member of, uploading was never a problem until a couple weeks ago. Now, when I go to upload, the link connects only to my "media library" and random photos - I can't select what I need. I had an online chat w/Apple support for the past hour. Tried other browsers (using Firefox) such as safari and brave. Same problem. I created a new user and used other browser. Problem still happened.

Is there a permission issue? Or, should I download the new Tahoe OS and see if that fixes the problem?

I have successfully posted a question, and I figured out how to view my post (GilDawson -> View Profile -> My Questions). However, I notice that my screensnatch does not appear with my posting! It is important to illustrate my problem, and I was careful in uploading it, yet I cannot find it and I cannot figure out how to update my post.

I have Windows 11 in this Thinkpad!! Why was using FireFox which I guess is out of business? So now I need a way to get Gmail, but Google Chrome has pop-ups that are taking up 25% of my screen space!!! Why? Help? should I go to Best Buy? What to ask? What did I do wrong? I'm 81. (Hate to tell age!) What to do? Thanks, Terry
